Re: For other noobs

Actually, you don't need to be root. Just choose or enter the path to your local (~/.kde) emoticons. On my system (FC4 KDE 3.4.2), it's ~/.kde/share/emoticons/ .. The script uses kde-config to get the prefixes, but your actual emoticon path may vary.

Hint: try "locate emoticons.xml" and look at the pattern of the resulting paths.

You can put this script somewhere in your path, chmod +x it, and just run it directly instead of invoking perl.

Ok, I took out LWP and just used IO::Socket. This should make things easier for most distributions.

Only one 'but' happens with Kopete and that is on my end. When a smiley is entered and sent (or received) it only uses the first characters of a smiley code in my screen. It doesn't use the full code to create one.

So.. on the phone :)] shows itself in Kopete as the :) smiley with a ] next to it. As said.. the Yahoo user sees the on the phone smiley, I see :) with a ]

How do you like Plasma 5? The best KDE Desktop ever. Definitely a nice improvement. Not decided yet. Haven't tried it yet. I do not like some of the changes. KDE is taking the wrong way. I am still sticking with KDE 3.5. I have no opinion, but wanted to vote anyway.
